Roth is best known as the creator of the 5 Rhythms form of movement meditation, but she has supplemented and documented her teaching practice with recordings, videos, and several books. Connections is a short book but a thoughtful one, a series of half-slangy, half-poetic meditations on the concept of intuition, instinct, and inner knowing. Roth writes with the same instinctive flow with which she dances, flinging off memorable phrases like fast moves, touching on a galaxy of other writers and artists, weaving in anecdotes from her own life. This was a pleasurable and stimulating read, if not as good as her earlier book, Sweat Your Prayers.
